Agenda

"Our agenda is a widely-held secret." At Noon, we mill around for a bit: the organized program begins about 1:00 pm. As usual, this is an Open Meeting on US Soil, and everyone's invited (even Florida Election officials). Agenda — Open Discussions: Rodney Thayer will be talking about Metricom modems (old 28.8/new 128Kbps) Ben Laurie (of OpenSSL fame) may be in town, depending on transportation. FreeSWAN 1.7 was just released. Woo-hoo! Oh, yeah, Bush\Gore\Bush\Nader was elected :-) Mojo Nation: the Monthly Progress Report — (random Evil Geniuses)
Autonomous Zone Industries develops Mojo Nation, a decentralized, distributed data service with strong crypto/privacy features, using a novel resource allocation mechanism to create a secure information publishing, caching, and retrieval system with the ability to scale up for higher bandwidth content. It also features a Reputation system of significant interest to Cypherpunks. AZI will present their monthly update and a general discussion will follow. Bring your bug reports.

Location

The Stanford meeting location will be familiar to those who've been to our outdoor summer meetings before, but for those who haven't been, it's on the Stanford University campus (in Palo Alto, California), at the end of Santa Theresa, at the tables outside Tressider Union, just west of Dinkelspiel Auditorium. We meet at the tables on the West side of the building, inside the horseshoe "U" formed by the Tresidder building. Ask anyone on campus where "Tressider" or the "Student Union" is and they'll help you find it. If the weather is bad, we'll meet inside. Food and beverages are available at the cafe inside Tresidder.
